While the event this year will be hosted virtually, we are pleased to be able to still offer the Student Program completely free* to our participants! We have intentionally designed the programming to be engaging and foster dialogue on important issues related to personal and career development.
This year, we will introduce a few of the myriad agencies and internship opportunities that exist in the U.S. federal government. The hundreds of Federal agencies and commissions that make up the United States government are responsible for so much – from protecting the health of Americans, preserving the forests, ensuring the safety of the country’s borders, to advancing the general welfare of the American people. To see a full listing of Federal Agencies, Departments, and Commissions, visit USA.gov.
Our talented and authentic speakers and panelists are thrilled to join us! They will talk about their own career journeys, offer their expertise and insight into various topics, and will reflect on the highs and lows of their choices that have led them to where they are. The speakers have lived the challenges that students and young professionals face as they make decisions about their futures and will authentically share their stories with you.
The program includes a plenary opening session, concurrent panels introducing internship pathways throughout the Federal Government, and a workshop on the steps needed to prepare for an internship in the federal government.

- Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI)
- Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA)
